Share on social media

A number of Rabbitohs players, led by John Sutton, Jason Clark and Luke Burgess, will be taking part in a 24 Hour Run to help support Suicide Prevention Australia.

On the 7th and 8th of June, participants will be taking the opportunity to test themselves by taking on the huge task of continually running on a treadmill for 24 hours to raise vital funds for Suicide Prevention Australia.

The event will be held at Maroubra Sports Club and kick off on Friday 7 June at 6pm with the treadmills turning over right on the dot.

Get down and run/walk with the team or get your company involved.

There will be 24 hours of entertainment including raffles, auctions, lawn bowls challenge, celebrity cook offs, and culminating with a huge Saturday night kicking off at 6pm with a special performance by Oz Music artist of the year for 2012 Kid Mac.
